Introduction | Yext Hitchhikers Platform

Prerequisites

You must be on the new Pages architecture in order to build secure Pages and sites.

This also cannot use Pages legacy config, but rather must use the new config structure. Refer to this guide to confirm you have the proper setup.

Overview

Using an outside OAuth Provider, you can authenticate users and secure your entire site and sensitive information. These users will not have access to the Yext Platform. The following steps will walk you through how to configure and integrate your Pages with an external IDP developer account to follow standard OIDC protocol.

If you are using Okta or Auth0 , we recommended following the relevant guides to make the setup easier.

This guide is part of the Consumer Auth Initiative to create Private Sites. Please refer to this Consumer Auth Overview guide before getting started to make sure this is the right option for you.

Note
If you are setting up a reverse proxy, please refer to the Reverse Proxy reference doc. The OIDC-protected site step is necessary for Yext to handle requests from your reverse proxy server correctly.
